Where do they live - Arctic or Antarctic?
Sort the animals by whether they live in the Arctic or the Antarctic. You will need to pay attention to the actual species, so listen to the audio.
When you are ready, use the 'Mark' button to find out if you're right.
Discussion points
- There are many species of each kind of animal. To complete this activity you will need to pay attention to the particular species, as each species has its own geographical range. For example, some seals can be found in the north and others in the south.
- What does each animal eat and how does it live? Does that help you place them in the correct box?
- What geographical facts do you know about the Arctic and the Antarctic? How are they different?
Teaching tips:
Follow on from this by writing in detail about polar animals or children could choose one animal to research further and present their findings to others.
